About me.

My name is Suhani Vasa and I am a senior at Frisco High School. I am currently in my second year of the Independent Study and Mentorship (ISM) Program. In my first year of ISM I studied the topic of wealth management in the business field. I was able to shadow a financial advisor and gain real world experience in the financial world. Although I was able to learn a lot, I realized that the field was not meant for me. After a lot of self reflection I finally allowed myself to realize that my true passion is helping and caring for others, and a great way I can fill this passion is through the healthcare field. My older brother, and role model, has struggled with back issues for longer than I can remember, due to many factors. Recently, his injury has been at a climax, and I can see it affecting his daily life, his mental health, and our family in very serious ways. This year, I have decided to dedicate my work to my brother, and I have chosen the topic of orthopedics. Through my work, I hope to find solutions to my brother's pain, and also solutions for those who struggle with very similar challenges.

 I am a very hard working and driven student who has always worked hard for the goals I set for myself. I have excelled athletically by playing sports like varsity tennis in the past and also academically which has allowed me to be placed in the top 6% of my class. In my year of ISM, I look forward to showing my diligence and passion through my work.
